KDE Plasma not searching more than 1 letter in the start menu

I recently install KDE plasma on top of my vanilla Ubuntu environment and for some reason the start menu doesn't search for anything more than 1 letter with it being stuck at whatever key I press first. It is a very strange bug and I am under the assumption that it's because of some kind of system conflict.
